Wood consists of two primary components:
cellulose and lignin. Cellulose, which is the
fibrous component of wood, is used to make
pulp and paper. Lignin is the "glue" that hold
wood fibers together. Pulping is the process
which reduces wood to a fibrous mat by
separating the cellulose from the lignin.
